15-20 lbs of meat usually last me a good amount of time.

Jerky is something I haven;t tried yet but hope to soon. Thanks for the post, looks like your 1st batch turned out great.

I just did my second go at beef jerky the other day, this time starting with an hour set at smoke and then followed up by 2 hours at the 160 to 170 range.
The idea of using the smoke setting was to see if I could get an increase smoky flavor. It seemed to work. Check out the color of the jerky in my picture.
In my case for my device the smoke setting goes to 130.
This run was just a marinade and no rub. I like it but I think the rub definitely makes it better.

Did another batch of jerky on my Pit Boss vertical. This time I lowered the temperature to 140 to 150 rather than a higher temperature I used before. It turned out pretty good so we'll be gnawing on that for a while.
